Mount Sidley is the highest dormant volcano in Antarctica, a member of the Volcanic Seven Summits, with a summit elevation of 4,181–4,285 meters (13,717–14,058 ft). It is also the highest point in Westarctica. Mount Sidley is a massive, mainly snow-covered shield volcano which is the highest and most imposing of the five volcanic mountains that comprise the Executive Committee Range of Marie Byrd Land. The feature is marked by a spectacular 5 km wide caldera on the southern side and stands north east of Mount Waesche in the southern part of the range. Photo Credit: 7Summits.com |
